Apple's biggest product unveiling of the year is now in our rear-view mirror, with the company taking the wraps off of new iPhone, Apple Watch, and iPad models while also prepping for the launch of its new Apple Arcade and Apple TV services.

In about a month's time, Microsoft may unveil the next generation of its year-old, entry-level Windows tablet, the Surface Go. For now, however, Apple has fired the first shot: a $329 10.2-inch iPad that offers a lot of what the Surface Go does, and for slightly less.

While many Microsoft Surface tablets feel bulky when detached from their Type Cover keyboards, the $399 Surface Go does not. However, it's also powered by a somewhat poky Intel Pentium Gold processor, while Apple's latest iPad has its optimized A10 Fusion chip under the hood. It's not that much different than the Apple 9.7-inch iPad (2018), though. The iPad also makes the camera a focus, though you'll look slightly ridiculous taking photos using any tablet, Apple or Windows.
